firewall good anymore?

Firewall good anymore i was thinking pure orb then max fire wall and fire mastery for cold immunes and then i also will have a high lvl def merc 2

Firewall does good damage, its only drawback is, that you have to force your enemies to stay in it. A good merc can do that, or you, if you freeze your opponents. I prefer Fireball / Meteor though.

Stupid question maybe, but isn't that the same with Meteor?

If you are getting used to the cast delay, you can predict where the monster will be when the meteor comes down and the impact damage is nice. Monsters are as stupid as your merc and don´t change their way, just because a Meteor is going to land where they will be at that time. :D

Really? :scratch:




:lol:

that explain's it, thx McCain

Well the difference about meteor is that it does serious dmg upon impact AND while standing there. However meteor is probably better since you can synergize it with fireball for tonz of dmg and a non timed attack. Why do u want firewall btw?

well im spending 60 points in ice tree and then 5 for various other things that only leaves me with about 40 skills so wouldnt max firewall and mastery be better then max meteor firemastery

If your merc can tank monsters and keep them in the same place for a few seconds, I guess firewall would do better damage. Usually you go with less points in cold then in fire, but max firewall/firemastery should do sufficient damage.

I'll second that. I used FW as backup for an FO-sorc, and it's better than Meteor or Fireball imo.
